Sometimes when I am looking at the before/after/during pictures I think that some of you must really be making your loved ones proud. Especially those of you with a drastic weight loss.
So that leads me to ask....what are some of the reactions/compliments that some of you have received from your weight loss? What are some of the positive things that have happened that you have noticed/witnessed/experienced as a result? I bet some of you have some moving stories and I'd love to hear them because they give me encouragement.
-I'll go first. Now I only lost 30 lbs and got down to 170 at my best. But what I loved was that I lost that little pouch that hangs above my lower belly. I could bend over and tie my shoes without having my belly fighting me back.
-One day I was walking down the hall at work and this lady said, "Look at you! You're wasting away, eat something!!" That made me feel sooooo good.
-As spring and less layers came upon us, I finally bought my first size 14 junior low rise boot cut levis! When my boyfriend saw me that night--let's just say it took a couple of hours for us to get where we were going. But the nicest thing was that he was so genuine when he told me how proud and amazed he was at me and my strength. He said I was always a beautiful plus sized model to him with all the packaging in the right places, but now I was like this precious little thing he wanted to hold his hand. And that was at a size 14!!
It was also kind of nice seeing my ex husbands face when he picked up my son. He didn't say anything but his face said it all. He He He.
So those were my favorite things that happened when I lost my weight at first.
Looking forward to hearing them from you guys!

). Well my husband happened to walk in and asked me what I was looking for. I mumbled something and kept looking. He didn't leave though and I could sense him behind me. I stood up and turned around and said "what?". He looked embarassed, but he said that I didn't look so big from behind anymore and my waist was cutting in.
